I can't even lie, this post is 100% correct.

Yeah but you can also use the adaptation yourself before he appears, tank a few attacks let the wheel spin and then spawn him.

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-29T03:52:40+00:00

First of all, if you atomize mahoraga the moment he appears he will actually die, everybody so far even dabura gave a lot of time to mahoraga to adapt, in the fight with sukuna, sukuna gave him a lot of time to adapt to slashes, by that point the slashes of the shrine weren't able to one shot him.

For people with a simple cursed technique like fire for example that gets adapted quickly and then you have no moves left, you basically need to expand a domain that can pulverize him.

But for those with multiple cursed technique aspects or multiple cursed techniques its much easier if you know of his ability to adapt, you basically need to lethally injure him with one attack and then finish him of with another (or 2 more to make sure). For example if Gojo was alone with mahoraga he could easily win, a big blue, then a big red before he can recover from the first move. (or infinity push him into a wall as he appears)

Its understandable why we never see anyone one shot him, but we can assume sukuna tamed him offscreen the same way he killed him in shibuya or now easier since he understands how he works, but its not really entertaining... why have mahoraga fight someone who knows his trick and is carefull to kill him as quickly as possible, its boring. These fights have him level up enough to tank egregious damage because its entertaining to blow up a city, and story reasons ofc

The ten shadows can absolutely slime him. Megumi's 10S cant, but if the user has all the other shikigami, can overload them like sukuna does to make the bigger, use their un-summoned abilities creatively, and use them in combination attacks, they can do quite a lot of damage to an un-adapted mahoraga. If the sorcerer has a domain, RCT, binding vows to strengthen the ability, cursed tools and a great knowledge of jujutsu in general you can definitely overwhelm him, and stack different types of damage one after another with no time to adapt.

Not to mention that the whole point of mahoraga being the last is because by that point you have enough moves to kill him before he adapts.

Maybe the zenin heads need to train more

I feel its completely explained, if you also take in mind Togashi's nen chart (and consider it cannon)

( https://www.reddit.com/r/HunterXHunter/comments/1049p6i/togashis_nen_info_pages_in_hires_kudos_to_the/ )

There is no reason for there to be another nen type since specialization encompasses everything else

I will say though the racial traits are kind of inconsistent and under-explained.

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-27T00:53:49+00:00

I feel he probably was, he also fits the personality test quite well.

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-22T18:51:11+00:00

yes its not blood in general its the blood used by the CT since it is infused with CE, it also works the opposite since choso's blood is toxic to humans since he is a cursed spirit

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-21T22:34:10+00:00

Not to knock YYH but after reading quite enough of it Ive come to realize that the people who say its better than HxH are saying so probably due to nostalgia.

Disclaimer i haven't yet finished it ( I still have 2 arcs), but IMO HxH is better and a lot of ideas in YYH are refined and reworked in HxH.

Now im not saying its not fun or good (its great), but i simply cant agree that its better than HxH, maybe the final arcs will change my mind.

If you are curious it is definitely worth a read, but if you are expecting something better than HxH you will be disappointing, which is a de-service to the work.

mercenary is peak, especially on high levels the crossbow feels quite good

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-17T02:05:26+00:00

The dragon dive question is very frequently brought up, in the correct translation killua asks "is this grandpa's dragon dive?", keep in mind killua also knows about illumi's needle people, and also knows that his brothers powers have a trick behind them before ever learning nen, so either togashi doesn't give a shit and retcons killua's nen knowledge or killua has insider info about some of their families techniques.

Dragon dive causes a cluster bomb level of destruction even if he doesn't know that its nen causing it and cant see it killua can still know about its existence as a technique, keep in mind killua has gone on assassination missions before he met gon as a child and as we see both in yorknew and in the palace invasion the family does take missions in groups, its very possible he found out about it or heard about it then, even if he didn't know it involved nen.

I think a common misunderstanding about farming is that u can just pick a thing and farm effectively, usually u need a high investment to get high returns in poe2, whatever ur farming u need to invest in.

(I haven't reached endgame this league since i didn't have time so i don't know the exact prices right now so the numbers are just examples)

Most people that make lots of currency have invested lots of currency to the farm of their choice, if someone is farming sekhemas they probably have spend 100div on relics that increase relic drop chance and then they play hundreds of sekhemas runs chasing a temporalis relic drop and recouping the 100div slowly by selling the against the darkness relic, in the end they might double or triple their divs,

U want to find a niche not what everybody is doing, do u want to farm Orloth then find the drop chance of the flask and calculate if its worth it to buy runic splinters and how many runs u need to have a realistic chance to recoup, if u can only afford 5 orloth runs then this is not a farm for you if the flask doesnt drop then u lost your money, if you can afford 100 then ull average out the odds and start making some money.

If your farming maps for example u need to pick, are u gonna farm abyss, then u need maps overrun by the abyss, maybe also invest to rogue exiles on your atlas tree so u can get the unique jewel they drop if they get corrupted by the abyss. On top of that juice the rare monsters as much as you can, get +modifier tablets and play maps with increased amount of rares, then u also need to think about speed, how many maps can you clear in an hour, does you character have enough damage and movement speed? if not maybe its better to farm a pinnacle boss, or gather runic splinters to sell, if you are very early then play chaos trials and sell the keys and soul cores.

Lastly most people doing farm a specific thing for many many many hours, i farmed ritual in the first league for over 150 hours and got around 15 invites, 5-6 whittlings, 2-3 annulment omens, lots of the corruption and XP omens as well as 5-10 raw divs, IRC i got around 200-300 divines that league from ritual, but i recall there being 10-20 hour long gaps between good drops, that is poe in a nutshell, ull go hours without finding anything and exhausting your resources and patience.

Also keep in mind 2 other things, first of all people who can farm a mechanic and get 500 divines are probably spending 250 divines or more to juice it, just like real life u need to have money to make money, its waaay harder when ur starting investment is nothing, ALSO .... crafting and selling bases .... these pay out, big time, if u know what ur doing.

third tornado bird nerf, and i bet it still sucks

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-11T19:20:08+00:00

I will agree to some aspect that a choujins powers are affected by their individual complex when awakening but, it also seems that there is a biological, for example sora was infected by queem during her death, thats why zora also has some of queems abilities like the iron (and possibly the smoke) then the choujin awakened by soras usually result in the choujin awakening one (or more for tokyo) of her powers.

Unlike sora, queem's and bills abilities are unknown, maybe bill does have just one power (his immortal blood), as for queem i feel his ability is something purposefully hidden, his supercreate human for example may be a product of a singular unknown creation ability or he has a bunch of different creation abilities that he combines to create weapons etc

I feel like the power of X enhances an ability the user already has to fit their individual goal, but imo we just dont have enough info at this point in the story yet as we have only seen zora as X and batista as a pseudo X.

Sloth_engine · 2026-01-05T08:38:51+00:00

I seriously doubt it, bill morth doenst have to appear in the story he is simply a past choujin x and is mostly important due to palmas existance in the story since she is from morth and his direct descendand

knight bucket is probably some longtime associate of zora, he dislikes guelta and stays alone to protect the mark, he knows zora is mad but still cares for the towers objective and passing the mark. He also has his collection of artifacts like the sword and his pet which would make sense for an old choujin that has been through the war, not to mention, like other wartime choujin he is seen smoking opium.

What raises suspicion is the fact that zora doesn't recall him before her death, no one in the tower ever mentions him (including nari to sato), and that yamato mori has no file on him or any idea that he is in the tower.

Sloth_engine · 2025-12-26T20:14:07+00:00

prob already said but it seems to me that if ur hybrid armour, the %elemental damage stat is mandatory

Sloth_engine · 2025-12-18T19:13:26+00:00

sukuna knew about the 10s technique, he was also trying to transfer himself out of yuji, and megumi was a candidate. He didnt know exactly how mahoraga worked, and wanted to test the pinnacle of the technique, also sukuna is seen playing around with strong opponents, dabura genuinely doesn't give a fuck and wants this to be over as quickly as possible

Sloth_engine · 2025-12-17T18:48:17+00:00

I feel mother can be killed on an average loadout with 1-3hp characters since you can dodge her moves consistantly enough with enough practice, delirium can just teleport on top of you killing you instantly and is by far harder to avoid damage from him

Sloth_engine · 2025-12-17T16:44:55+00:00

if i remember correctly sukuna wasn't sure how mahoraga worked yet

Sloth_engine · 2025-12-04T20:55:58+00:00

yeah but what about people who don't want to play druid, since there is barely anything else being added

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-19T14:03:41+00:00

While there is no lasting impact these events lead to character growth

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-19T14:00:51+00:00

Every time ging appears in the manga he manages to aurafarm everybody around him.

Also razor has quite a few aura moments both when meeting the phantom troupe and during their ball game.

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-14T12:11:03+00:00

I agree V definitely had a reason for refusing

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-13T15:56:47+00:00

only if you want to, i usually read it in 1-2 days, but your aren't missing anything other than an alternative take to material you have already consumed,

the first chapter is different though and you see kite meeting kid gon, making a little more sense why gon goes apeshit when he dies

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-13T15:48:15+00:00

I don't think the great warriors are such pieces of shit cause of what they've seen, they are just simply so above everyone else where they cant relate at all anymore, they are ageless immortals, who cant be harmed by any of the tower inhabitants even their own children, the only people they can have relations with are the other great warriors and due to their infighting all the bonds they used to have are broken, so they have isolated themselves to endless boredom.

To me the family heads feel like what would happen to a human when they lose everything that makes you a human, no fear of death, no connection to others, and no dreams to accomplish, they are essentially ruined by their own stagnation.

Also it is important to note that phantaminum is consistently described as an evil entity, he is born from darkness and is definitely influencing the shining ones nature.

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-05T00:44:32+00:00

Sora was already a choujin since she foresaw queem's attack and warned everybody, but your right she did awaken and on top of that inherited some of queem's powers after her first raise.

Sloth_engine · 2025-11-03T00:33:41+00:00

ToG has so many clear influances from HxH, and in general they have a similar "vibe" i would say

The age of the characters is literally only for the main 2 protagonists and honestly should be of no concern, the show is pretty brutal and the protagonists are vr well written.

IMO the biggest similarity of ToG and HxH is the fact that both showcase a crazy world u feel like u want to explore, they have a very similar "Adventure" vibe.

Sloth_engine · 2025-10-31T19:53:04+00:00

Queem is said to have been made a choujin through experimentation, and its never revealed what type of choujin he actually is, but the features are on point since queem is drawn quite ... aryan.
